Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say the ant is walking across the floor. Then it hits the wall and starts climbing to the ceiling.
We have a right triangle, as in the diagram, so we can apply Pythagoras' Theorem.
x² + 6² = 10²
x² + 36 = 100
x² = 64
x = 8
The ant must walk eight vertical units.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Draw the line y = 1. Count how many units away the point is from that line. Move that point the same number of units in the opposite direction to create the reflection.
J is 2 units above y = 1. The new point is 2 units below y = 1. → (3, -1)
K is 3 units above y = 1. The new point is 3 units below y = 1. → (6, -2)
L is 5 units above y = 1. The new point is 5 units below y = 1. → (3, -4)
M is 3 units above y = 1. The new point is 3 units below y = 1. → (0, -2)
